Pull me tight against you
Let me feel your warmth
To know that I am safe
and in you I have a home

So many nights have passed
And there I lay in darkness
listening to voices
From deep into the past

So often I have tried
To wipe them from my mind
But with the coming of shadows
Are ghosts of the mind

So pull my tight against you
Remind me where I am
And that I'm safe with you
Untill the very end

I find your poem interesting. And, I like your general idea, for a fact often times I find myself writing similar poems. When time is available more of my poems will show up. But, anyway nice job

I do like this poem very much. I daresay I'm becoming a fan of you. I think the flow is rather nice. The only preference I would have, of course, is in the first stanza with 'to know that I am safe'. Of course, it's early here and I may just be flubbing the flow in my mind.

I especially love the third stanza. I feel that it truly speaks. There is emotion in here. It's not roaring, but it doesn't need to. In this case, it's almost like subtle musing in a darkened room, perhaps when it's just a little too late and you're just a little too lonely. I really like that. heart

One last criticism before I go on. Againest is generally spelled against, unless you're going for an effect here. Also, in the last stanza, "So pull my tight againest you. Remind my where I am. And that I'm safe with you Entill the very end."
Do you mean 'me' instead of my? Also, until rather than entill.

Still, it doesn't stop the feeling of the poem from permeating my blood. I really do like it and really do appreciate you sharing it. I just like to try and help some too. smile I apologize for any stepping on toes.
